Description Bart Nagel 2007-01-12 06:45:49 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
double quote characters are allowed to appear in scheme strings when escaped with a backslash, for instance "this double quote \" is not the end of the string". however, an escaped double quote is not recognised as escaped. a string like the one above therefore causes all the following text to be recognised as a string even though it is not, screwing up the syntax colouring. i'm sure this is an easy fix, but i don't know how to do it.

Steps to reproduce:


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

gtksourceview issue.

Maybe it's just a matter of adding

<escape-char>\</escape-char>

to scheme.lang
Comment 2 Paolo Borelli 2007-07-03 10:22:02 UTC 
This is fixed in gtksourceview 2.
